The key to this dish lies in selecting the right ingredients — fresh, quality pepperoni and good melting cheese make all the difference. I always recommend using a sharp cheddar or a blend of mozzarella and parmesan to get that perfect crisp-up without burning. When it comes to pepperoni, thicker slices hold up better, giving you that satisfying chew alongside the crispiness. If you want to switch things up, turkey pepperoni or even thinly sliced salami work beautifully here.

  • 1 cup sliced pepperoni (about 20–25 slices)
  • 1 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Optional: pinch of dried oregano or Italian seasoning
  • Optional: crushed red pepper flakes for a little heat

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Arrange the pepperoni slices on the baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap.
  3. Sprinkle a generous pinch of shredded cheddar and mozzarella over each pepperoni slice, then dust with Parmesan for extra flavor.
  4. If you like, add a pinch of dried oregano or Italian seasoning on top for a subtle herby note.
  5. Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese bubbles and crisps up around the edges.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes — this helps the crisps firm up perfectly.
  7. Carefully transfer the crisps to a cooling rack or plate and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
